Summary: Add m4_forbid_pattern for autoconf-archive macros Project: Autoconf Submitted by: drbob Submitted on: Wed 09 Sep 2015 15:20:51 GMT Category: None Priority: 5 - Normal Severity: 3 - Normal Status: None Privacy: Public Assigned to: None Originator Email: Open/Closed: Open Discussion Lock: Any Operating System: None _______________________________________________________ Details: autoconf-archive (http://www.gnu.org/software/autoconf-archive/) is quite big now, but the error messages generated by autoconf/m4 when trying to process a configure.ac without some of the necessary autoconf-archive macros installed are not very helpful. Would it be possible for autoconf to specify something like m4_pattern_forbid([^_?AX_[A-Z_]+$]) to forbid all un-expanded autoconf-archive macros; and for autoconf-archive to add the necessary m4_pattern_allow() calls for macros it installs? _______________________________________________________ Reply to this item at: <http://savannah.gnu.org/support/?108879> _______________________________________________ Message sent via/by Savannah http://savannah.gnu.org/
